    Simple, low cost way to get a degreed harmonic balancer

    A degreed Harmonic balancer, or crank pulley is usually an expensive choice to get more accurate ignition timing. MSD's tapes cut this expense to under ten dollars. Simply pick the tape among the 8 diameters included in the kit that matches your pulley's diameter. After thoroughly cleaning the pulley simply press the self adhesive tape to the pulley's TDC timing mark (0 degrees) and you're done. The additional tapes give you the opportunity to practice before applying the correct tape for your pulley diameter.

    Easy to select size odd balance and stick it on. Make sure you put it on the right direction it does not tell you how to install it but remember it's opposite what the stationary marks are.
